Imagine if they did write down things the way romans did.

You mean mostly a bunch of useless propaganda?
Ian Perez
It was passed down orally because the druids hated the idea of the peasants and lower classes having access to knowledge
Julian Ortiz
False, writing taboo occurs because of the belief that writing things down negatively impact your ability to memorize.
There a Mayan saying that you do not write something down to remember it, you write it down so you don't need to.

Were hobbits based on celts or anglos?
Meriadoc, Peregrin are celtic names
Isaac Cruz
They're Brythonic names and no. They were based on English countryside folk.
Caleb Hill
>brythonic
In other words, celtic
Jace Foster
They were based on germans

I don't even like using the term Celtic. It's such a broad and stupid term to describe a group of people who didn't have that much in common with one another.
Jose Lopez
Noting in common except language, religion and culture
I suppose English perople are Germanic too

>Noting in common except language, religion and culture
No to all of those. They were similar but still quite distinct from one another. You can't refer to Galls and Britons as the same people. That's fucking retarded.
Brayden Jackson
All Celtic languages are so similar as to be nearly dialects, especially back then. You dont have a clue and should shut the fuck up.
Anthony Morris
barely language, lmao at religion and culture.
Lots of celtic languages are only know because a few pieces of lead/bronze mate or toponomics, and the only ones than are more or less well know are the britonic branch.

I speak Irish and its fairly similar to Welsh even though Irish is Q Celtic and Welsh is P Celtic. The spelling looks very different but they are like Italian and Spanish in sound.
So there
Julian Nguyen
Except they aren't
Italian and Spanish are nearly mutually intelligible. Irish and Welsh are not at all.
Irish is similar to Scottish Gaelic, but definitely not Welsh.
Mason Adams
>similar
Its the exact same

I speak Spanish and don't know any Italian. Sort of the same difference as German and English. One or two words I can understand here and there but mostly sounds like gibberish. Might me how fast most Romance language speakers speak. I'm Mexican and we didn't get that memo apparently.

>I speak Spanish and don't know any Italian.
You'd probably be fine in that situation. This all is turning into anecdotal arguments, but my GF is Mexican, had no problem understanding my Italian relatives. There's random words that differ, but generally the meaning can be understood. I also noticed Portuguese can understand Spanish much easier than vice versa.
>Sort of the same difference as German and English.
These differences are far greater. English was changed heavily in vocab and simplified in grammar after Norman occupation.
>One or two words I can understand here and there but mostly sounds like gibberish. Might me how fast most Romance language speakers speak. I'm Mexican and we didn't get that memo apparently.
Mexicans are the fastest speakers I've witnessed. What do you mean,. I worked at a Latin nightclub for years. I talked like a retard in comparison cuz I just can't talk that fast in Spanish.
Colton Morales
Wow, French is a real standout language.
Asher Gomez
hobbits are obviously based on the little people. Do some homework.
Brandon Thompson
If only it didn't sound so snobby.
Quebecers ruined it for me.
